Vol. 6, No. 3, 2018, pp. 53-59. doi: 10.11648/j.plant.20180603.11 Received : June 9, 2018; Accepted : September 30, 2018; Published : October 29, 2018 Abstract: The aim of this review was to provide an updated knowledge on the Phytochemistry and Pharmacognosy of Isolona hexaloba Engl. & Diels. A literature search was conducted to obtain information about the phytochemistry and pharmacognosy of Isolona hexaloba from various electronic databases (PubMed Central, PubMed, Science Direct and Google scholar). The scientific name of this plant species was used as a keyword for the search, along with the terms phytochemistry and pharmacognosy. The chemical structures of the Isolona hexaloba and Isolona genus naturally occurring compounds were drawn using ChemBioDraw Ultra 12.0 software package. The findings revealed that this plant is traditionally used as a purgative and in treating sores, smoke from the bark as a strained muscle relaxant, infectious and parasitic pathologies, loss of appetite, rheumatism, intestinal cramps, headache, back pains, sexual weakness. This plant is reported to possess various biological properties like antioxidant, antimicrobial, antihyperglycemic, antileishmanial and antimalarial. These properties are due to the presence of numerous naturally occurring phytochemicals like flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, reducting sugars, coumarins, terpenes and steroids. The present mini-review revealed that Isolona hexaloba Engl. & Diels is a good candidate for Tropical Plants Screening Research program for the development of lead compounds against genetic and parasitic diseases such as the evaluation of the anthelminthic activity.

A new genus, Lukea Gosline & Cheek (Annonaceae), is erected for two new species to science, Lukea quentinii Cheek & Gosline from Kaya Ribe, S.E. Kenya, and Lukea triciae Cheek & Gosline from the Udzungwa Mts, Tanzania. Lukea is characterised by a flattened circular bowl-shaped receptacle-calyx with a corolla of three petals that give the buds and flowers a unique appearance in African Annonaceae. Both species are extremely rare shrubs of small surviving areas of lowland evergreen forest under threat of habitat degradation and destruction and are provisionally assessed as Critically Endangered and Endangered respectively using the IUCN 2012 standard. Both species are illustrated and mapped. Material of the two species had formerly been considered to be possibly Uvariopsis Engl. & Diels, and the genus Lukea is placed in the Uvariopsis clade of the Monodoreae (consisting of the African genera Uvariodendron (Engl. & Diels) R.E.Fries, Uvariopsis, Mischogyne Exell, Dennettia Bak.f., and Monocyclanthus Keay).

    Massoni et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2015) 15:49 DOI 10.1186/s12862-015-0320-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Five major shifts of diversification through the long evolutionary history of Magnoliidae (angiosperms) Julien Massoni1*, Thomas LP Couvreur2,3 and Hervé Sauquet1 Abstract Background: With 10,000 species, Magnoliidae are the largest clade of flowering plants outside monocots and eudicots. Despite an ancient and rich fossil history, the tempo and mode of diversification of Magnoliidae remain poorly known. Using a molecular data set of 12 markers and 220 species (representing >75% of genera in Magnoliidae) and six robust, internal fossil age constraints, we estimate divergence times and significant shifts of diversification across the clade. In addition, we test the sensitivity of magnoliid divergence times to the choice of relaxed clock model and various maximum age constraints for the angiosperms. Results: Compared with previous work, our study tends to push back in time the age of the crown node of Magnoliidae (178.78-126.82 million years, Myr), and of the four orders, Canellales (143.18-125.90 Myr), Piperales (158.11-88.15 Myr), Laurales (165.62-112.05 Myr), and Magnoliales (164.09-114.75 Myr). Although families vary in crown ages, Magnoliidae appear to have diversified into most extant families by the end of the Cretaceous. The strongly imbalanced distribution of extant diversity within Magnoliidae appears to be best explained by models of diversification with 6 to 13 shifts in net diversification rates. Significant increases are inferred within Piperaceae and Annonaceae, while the low species richness of Calycanthaceae, Degeneriaceae, and Himantandraceae appears to be the result of decreases in both speciation and extinction rates.

(ANNONACEAE) FROM WEST-CENTRAL AFRICA 1 SUNDAY ADEBUNMI ADENIRAN *, AKEEM BABALOLA KADIRI AND JAMES DELE OLOWOKUDEJO Department of Botany, University of Lagos, Akoka Lagos Nigeria Keywords: Comparative; Monodoreae; Isolona; Monodora; Midrib; Taxonomy. Abstract This article assessed midrib anatomical description of Isolona Dunal. And Monodora Engl. (Annonaceae) from West-Central Africa. Twelve species of tribe Monodoreae were investigated on the basis of micromorphology of midrib characters with the aid of light microscopy. The study provided important taxonomic characters which aid delineation of inter and infrageneric species within the duo genera. The generic features include centrally positioned, open collateral vascular bundle and furrow shaped midribs which are diagnostic to the genera.U shaped vascular bundles are present in most of the species with inviginating or expanded endings while marginal traces vary from 2 to 4. The presence of keel protrusion at abaxial surface established a closer affinity among M. angolensis, M. crispata, and M undulata with additional features species were delimited. Other variable useful features of midrib encountered are trichomes, parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma, and adaxial and abaxial shape. The midrib characters have been used to prepare an indented dichotomous key to delimit the species in the genera studied. Introduction Annonaceae Juss, the custard-apple, is the largest family of the Order Magnoliales (Bremer et al., 2009; Smith et al., 2010; Zenget al., 2014) and pantropical in distribution consisting of trees, shrubs and lianas (Mols and Kessler, 2003).

The analysis was carried out with methanol extract and one hundred and seventy-six (176) phyto- constituents identified and scored at different retention times ranges from 3.22min in I. hexaloba (Pierre) Engl. & Diels. to 34.56min in I. campanulata Engl. & Diels.. The prominent compounds were scored in carboxylic and its derivates while the least compound was identified in alkyne. Highest M.wt. was 741.5 in I. congolana (De Wild.&T.Durand) Engl. & Diels. at retention time of 34.52 min and the lowest M.wt. was 84.15 in I. thonneri (De Wild.&T.Durand) Engl. & Diels. at retention time 3.44 min.

Comprehension of the causes and mechanisms underpinning radiations and detection of their frequency will contribute greatly to the understanding of the evolutionary origin of biodiversity and its ecological structure. A dated and well-resolved phylogenetic tree of Annonaceae was used to study diversification patterns in the family in order to identify factors that drive speciation and the evolution of morphological (key) characters. It was found that, except for Goniothalamus, the largest genera in the family are not the result of radiations. Furthermore, the difference in species numbers between subfamilies Annonoideae (former long branch clade) and Malmeoideae (former short branch clade) cannot be attributed to significant differences in the diversification rate. Most of the speciation in Annonaceae is not distinguishable from a random branching process (i.e.
